What a guy
Just the kind of stuff we want out MPs to be debating
When Iâve taught about Weimar Germany I have used Freddo prices to explain inflation and hyperinflation.
Surprisingly useful so I welcome this entry of the Freddo into public debate.
Seems like a fun and light-hearted way to engage kids with politics, rather than a serious campaign that will eat up lots of time that should be spent on more serious matters, so Iâm ok with this.
Just wanted to say that Iâm slowly recovering from a breakdown at the start of summer. Being involved on this forum (not to mention Arsenalâs form and some powerful medication) have gotten me through some difficult days. so thank you to the OA family for being here.
Seriously, get rid of citizenship/PPSC or whatever it called.
Secondary schoolers should have an hour a week dedicated to practical personal finance skills and an understanding basic economics.
Both things youâre referring to (neither of which are taught anymore) included personal finance components. âBasic economicsâ is a very ambiguous term. Personal finance is also still taught to students from an early stage of secondary school.
Also, what on earth do you expect students to be learning about personal finance for the approximately 180 hours youâve prescribed across five years of secondary school?
Youâre overthinking the point, just a little
You literally said secondary school students should have an hour a week dedicated to it. Doesnât seem like overthinking to ask what you think they should be learning in that time.
Just heard the Beach Boysâ song Barbara Ann on the wireless. Had to smile. Donkeys ago, the boys on the USAF bases used to sing âBomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iranâ.
Good to see I started the tradition of Scotland finishing bottom in the group stage.
Ah @morrisc311
blast from the past
Whatâs the football equivalent of this match up? Argentina vs Brazil in a world cup final?

Grimsby Town v Scunthorpe United in the whogivesashit derby
The World Series featuring teams exclusively from two different countries culminating in a final being contested by two teams from the same nation!!
Even Tottenham have played in sporting occasions with more significance. And that remains true if you exempt the Champions League final they fluked their way to.
Imagine the worst supporters you know facing off against the other set of the worst supporters you know. Both fanbases are awful.
